If the IESG were to refuse to publish the Sender-ID document as it is,
it would not "police" everything: anyone can still do what he wants on
the Internet.

The only thing than the IETF can do is to "bless" or not the document,

Stephane,
just a remark here. In the RFC 3066bis Last Call case the IETF has the capacity not only to "police" but to "impose" and "force". This is the case when a memo documents a IANA registry. In the case of a standard track memo, there can be an appeal before it is imposed. It seems not in the case of a BCP. jfc
